A Tale
Of Two Shadows
Yesterday, two mammals emerged from their hidey-holes.
At Gobbler’s Knob in Pennsylvania, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow. He snuggled back in his hole in the ground for another six weeks of good rest before spring arrives.
In Washington, D.C., Donald John Trump finally arose some good time later. From his sleeping pod, he instructed his minions to turn to page 15 of the Project 2025 playbook and implement whatever horrific measures it prescribed for demolishing the rule of law in America. He did not bother to check for his shadow. It was over at the treasury building.
Brilliant! The visuals and your wise words say all I need to understand for this week about the coup. Unlike Punxsutawney Phil, millions of Americans are not climbing back to their comfort zone and they are calling senators, representatives, organizing, supporting lawsuits to push back on illegal actions, getting into the streets, and taking constructive actions.
